What can you get for $1.50?

Where and how you may ask....well Walgreens was where it was at this week!

The Bic highlighters were on sale for 39 cents/package regularly $2.59 plus I had a $1/2 packages of Bic Stationary supplies and I had two of those coupons so $1.56 for the highlighter with $2 in coupons......I'll add to this scenario in a second

All week Walgreens has been having special deals with their on line ordering....on Monday it was 25 prints for 25 cents.. I couldn't believe it, 1 cent a print, that is unheard of. Tuesday and Wednesdays deals we not so hot but Thursdays deal was 20 free prints, now I thought 1 cent a print was good but free is even better! Then today, Friday's deal was a free scrapbook page up to 8x10 size so my grand total for 45 4x6 prints and an 8x10 scrapbook print was..... dun da da dun...25 cents! This normally would have cost me about $14, now I normally would not have paid 19 cents a print or bought a $5 scrapbook page but since they were free I could handle that

Well since I now have a negative total because my Bic highlighter coupons surpass the amount that they cost and the register won't allow for that I notice they have coupons for 49 cents M&Ms and since my shopper helpers have been so good I get them each a package so my grand total for 45 prints, 4 package of Highlighters, 1 8x10 print and 2 packages of M&Ms is $1....wow

Then on my way out the door I notice they have a store coupon for $2/1 tub of huggies wipes. I knew I also hada 75 cents off manufacturer coupon and I know that Walgreens accecpts 1 store adn 1 manufacturer coupon on any item so I go back to the baby care aisle and pick up a tub...with both my coupons I spend a total of 54 cents!
